I'm a retired Mechanical Engineer(also Master Electrician, Journeyman Tool & Die Maker), father of two Mechanical Engineers(both with Masters Degrees) and an accountant(CPA) I have some opinions on colleges and degrees. There is nothing sadder than someone who has studied hard in a curriculum that interests them and accumulated many thousands of debt with no hope of a job that will allow repayment. Our colleges are all too willing to let this happen to the unsuspecting or clueless young people. In some ways it's survival of the fittest. If kids don't look to the job market in the future their educations will most likely be wasted.

The selections you mention all seem to be good ones on the surface, being mostly technical, but I would say take a really good look at employment potential after you get that degree. It will keep her from being a talking point in some politicians campaign speech. By the way, I don't put political science very high on the list of desirable degrees. Just my rant.
